Has anyone read a good book lately? I could use some recommendations. I'm in that mood where it's like I'm hungry, but I have no idea what I want to eat, so I'm up for hearing about anything you've enjoyed

I really enjoyed Lolly Willowes by Sylvia Townsend Warner. It's a interwar book about the put upon (in the most *English* way) spinster who goes to live in the countryside. The blurbs all spoil what happens next, but it happens after the halfway point, so I won't.

It's gloriously feminist, and there is a final passage - "common as blackberries" - which is lovely.

No book recommendations (would be interested in some myself), though we are starting Their Eyes Were Watching God soon in my sophomore class, so super excited to read that again.

As for meet-ups, I have met more Star Trek people here in the KC area than anywhere else! There are still so many people I want to meet in RL though.
